Hugh, did it used to work? Had you made any changes to the preferences before the problem started? Note that a spot must have RTTY in the comment field for it to be considered RTTY. Also check the 2nd tab of your preferences and make sure Options for grayed-out spots is not set to anything. There's a possibility that your configuration file is corrupt. First, save your preferences to a .INI file. Close DX4WIN and navigate to your 8.04 SAVE directory. Find the DX4WIN.CFG file and rename it. Then restart DX4WIN and see if the colors return. Hopefully you have an older saved .INI file of your preferences somewhere that you can merge into the new (empty) configuration file. The one you just made may be corrupt also. You could try merging it and see what happens. 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim Reisert AD1C, <[email protected]>, http://www.ad1c.us ______________________________________________________________ Dx4win mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
